The Modelhaus did the beds for 58 and 59 long and short style. They are listed under part in the online catalog. Hope this helps

The beds are still available from Modelhaus, in both long and short lengths. They are complete beds, sides, floor, tailgate (non operable), front bed panel, taillights, and frame extensions for the long version. IIRC, they are available with and wthout the side trim. I have one of these beds, it's a very nice peice. Still need to pick up a cab to go with it.

FYI, the '58 and '59 cabs from Modelhaus have fender badges for the 3200 longbed truck.

Here's some pix of the Modelhaus '58/'59 long Fleetside bed.

I neglected to mention that the sides, front panel, and tailgate are molded as 1 peice in my last post. It wouldn't take much to make the tailgate open if desired.

does it work well with the AMT kits or is it more suited for the old promos?

This one is a conversion for the AMT kit, it even has the alignment holes in the bottom of the bed floor to match to the mounts on the AMT chassis. IIRC, the master was made using the AMT '55 for the sides.
